It is here! Giving @Bugger 8 months time for the trade in lol!

Congrats mnr. B!

You know that one bra at school who was too brave for his own good and as a result always got into the weirdest of situations? That bra who always pushed his luck with the hot teacher, till she smacks him or he ends up in the principal's office?

That bra here is Bugger and the hot teacher is his wife.

So small update. Had the front tyres replaced by SMG this morning, they shipped up from KZN and popped into JSN to get it sorted. Great service from JSN I must say. The front left tyre had a pothole bubble and was affecting the handling quite badly. Since the tyre has been replaced, on the brief trip to the office, felt like a different car. So very happy with the outcome.

Overall, I am really loving the car, it is a completely different driving experience from the 550. Although the dimensions are ultimately not that different, it feels smaller (active integral steering maybe?), it feels like it wraps around you with the ergonomics and the lower roofline, and the way the centre console cascades down through the centre of the car. The details are amazing. If anyone has experienced the interior, the door pulls on the front doors are works of art. The seats are incredibly comfortable. And the exhaust note is far more aggressive (even in Comfort) than the 550 was.

So very happy!

Huge congrats @Bugger. Interesting to hear these huge differences in your experience with the 550 vs the 850. Hopefully we get to see them perform next to one another at a run soon. Would love to do a real world comparison.

Thanks bud, yeah I am loving the car, it puts a smile on my face every time I walk towards it, and it's the classic turn back and look car. I will post a 1 month review soon with my thoughts. I saw you share those pics the other day, sad bud I hope it gets sorted soon and you back under way. My 550 was sold to a dude in JHB. So it went to Durban and came back to Jozi. I can track his every movement cos Netstar haven't deactivated the tracking device yet. Palookas.

LMFAO, that's crazy. Complete non-compliance of POPIA. But interesting to know. Can't wait for your month in review. It most certainly is a turn back and look type of car.
